Online shopping in Bangladesh has been around on Bangladesh for years.Due to various difficulties such as high bandwidth price compare to neighbor country such as India, people still aren't comfortable with using online services, most of them don't have monthly internet. And rural areas are still out of the reach of High Speed Internet. A recent survey[which?] shows that Bangladesh is an emerging market for the online sectors and it has a growing market of around 2 billion BDT. The introduction of 3G mobile internet boosted the online retail industry significantly. The main items sold are clothing, electronics, toiletries and gifts.[citation needed]
